I know there is still snow is nestling beneath suburban hedgerows and days of reasonable heat are a long time away, but i believe the key to having a good summer is to be prepared - That way your less likely to end up sitting around watching 1:30 neighbours and eating boxes of cereal day after day.

I suppose the most obvious thing to do is to go on holiday, a crazy expedition round europe would be pretty ace, but would probably end up costing an arm or a leg. What sort of holidays do you guys like? Im guessing most of us arent the Ayia Napa types.

For those of us preparing for a long time spent in the motherland what passtimes can u suggest? I think i have 10 weeks off or something ridiculous like that and i think i'm going to have to occupy myself to stay sane.

I think the best thing about summer is being able to spend whole days sitting around doing nothing. I love getting a few mates together, going to the nearest Green, bringing a football, a few guitars and a crate and just lying around all day.

My summer will consist of:
Going out lots and lots
Hopefully a few gigs
A trip somewhere with my mates, not sure where though!
A family holiday but I expect it will be a short one this year
Lots of footy and cricket
A job to fund all of the above
